Subject: arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c: use time_* macros
From: S.Caglar Onur <caglar@pardus.org.tr>

The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq are
more robust for comparing jiffies against other values.

So implement usage of the time_after() macro, defined in linux/jiffies.h,
which deals with wrapping correctly
